"We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism, vowed Mamdani to cheers from the audience during his swearing-in ceremony. Conservatives on social media, however, were less attracted to the idea. So many people have fled Communism and forced collectivism. Watching one of the largest cities elect someone who wants to impose that ideology here is horrific. This isn't just about rhetoric. The human costs of these policies will be very real. Best of luck, NYC."
"Right out of Joseph Stalin's 1928 play book forcing collectivism' on the Russian people. Taking away the individual's right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness (property) is communism in its purest form. America's greatest threat now lies within.

Zohran Mamdani pledged to replace the "frigidity of rugged individualism" with the "warmth of collectivism" during his New York City swearing-in. Conservative commentators and social media users reacted with sharp criticism, framing the pledge as authoritarian and likening it to communism. Several critics invoked historical examples or family experiences fleeing collectivist regimes and warned of real human costs. Right-leaning figures including Lydia Moynihan, Mark Walker, Megyn Kelly and Ilya Shapiro voiced opposition. Senator Bernie Sanders administered the oath, urged that wealthy individuals and large corporations pay more taxes, and led the crowd in a tax-related chant.
